There is No Promise of Tomorrow

Good evening,

I visited my fathers grave today, it is his birthday. I try to visit his grave every year on his birthday, rather then the day he died, that way we celebrate his life, not his death. So by now you are wondering, what does this have to do with survival. Well, it has everything to do with preparation, you see my father died suddenly, with absolutely no warning, in fact just 6 months before his death he had a complete physical and passed with flying colors. He was an athlete his entire life, went to college on a athletic scholarship, was drafted by the CFL, but decided to play pro golf, OK, you get the picture. He died when he was 54 years old, just died, like someone turned off a switch.

So, I guess where I am going with this is, when it comes to getting prepared, there is no tomorrow. you cannot predict what will happen or when. Will you have what you need when disaster strikes?, are you prepared?, do you have the training you need?

Live with purpose, say what needs to be said, love with all you are and live today likes it’s your last. Now is the time to act, there is no promise of tomorrow!

As always,

Stay Vigilant and Be Prepared

Life is fragile

As the title suggests I am examining the fragility of life. This is a reaction to the imminent loss of a loved one, it spurs us to action when death knocks.

My focus is to try to reach for life not when it eludes us, but always. We tend to take for granted the breath we are given, and the spirits we share. Then death knocks and we long for the days lost and the love not shared.

So reach for life now, when the fruit is ripe, don’t wait for it to fall. Glean from life all the delicious harvest while it is fresh. Love, Laugh and Share like today is the most important day.

Because it is!!

As always,

Stay Vigilant and Be Prepared
